Hi, I just installed this extension - it's great, thanks!
I have one question though: is there any easy way for bloggers to upload images from their desktop to their blog post? I've attached a screenshot of the pop-up I get when I try to add an image with the WISIWIG. It seems like the only way is to upload the image separately via ftp or something, then include it in your blog by referring to it by it's URL.
Is there any easier way?
Thanks in advance.

I installed this extention a couple of weeks ago and it's a great addition to my site.
Works very well. Great job.
I just noticed though that my blog pages do not seem to appear in the site map.
Is there anyway to get them into the site map or am I doing something wrong?
Thanks.

Fixed up problem with the wysiwyg MCE on blog edit!!!
In the file /app/design/adminhtml/default/default/template/aw_blog/head.phtml
replace this two rows:
lt;script src="lt;?php echo $this-gt;getSkinUrl('') ?gt;aw_blog/js/tiny_mce/tiny_mce.js"gt;lt;/scriptgt;
lt;script src="lt;?php echo $this-gt;getSkinUrl('') ?gt;aw_blog/js/init_rte.js"gt;lt;/scriptgt;
with these:
lt;script src="lt;?php echo $this-gt;getSkinUrl('aw_blog/js/tiny_mce/tiny_mce.js') ?gt;"gt;lt;/scriptgt;
lt;script src="lt;?php echo $this-gt;getSkinUrl('aw_blog/js/init_rte.js') ?gt;"gt;lt;/scriptgt;

I just installed this extension and I can not access my System/Configuration section. I am using Magento 1.4.1.1. I did clear cache several times, and also browse cache and I still have a blank screen wen I try to go to Configuration. Please Help.

Fontis WYSIWYG used to work with AW_Blog 1.4 on Magento 1.3.2.4, but not on 1.4.1.0. Any ideas why?
July 29, 2010

installed it on a Magento 1.4.10 and its not showing in the front end. I already have refreshed everything several times and logged in and out.
The blog does not show up in the front end and "Add Posts" and "Posts" is not showing up in the back end. Did anyone install it for 1.4.10 already ? Is there a new version coming out soon?
July 8, 2010

I have installed the 1.0.20 version that is available from the AheadWorks website. When I go to the blog page on the frontend of the store and click on the "Comments" link I get a 404 error. I uninstalled it and then installed an older version and still get the same. It looks as if the url generated at the "comments" link is wrong.

There were thousands of unapproved spam comments.Maybe the System should have the option for notifications for comments. As far as I was concerned I never knew about them.

I tried the aheadWorks Blog extension and for the most part it was easy to setup and worked well. After using it for a bit I have changed my mind about having a blog built into my store. I uninstalled the plugin through the magento-connect menu, but for some reason the blog link in the top-link header remains. Why wasn't this removed along with the extension. BTW I'm using a custom theme not a default one, so I had to copy the folders and xml file into my theme folders.

Answers

first of all, we would suggest that you check your header CMS block - in case you had inserted the Blog link manually, uninstalling the module would not have removed the link.If it is not the case, then we can assume that the uninstall wasn't completely successful. Our techs could assist you with clarifying the matter, so feel free to contact our support service.Thank you.

the default version of the extension does allow to show a number of posts in non-blog areas of your store, however, this functionality is limited to the latest posts only. ( a special "Latest Posts" widget is added by the extension )If you need some section to show the manually-specified set of posts, customization will be required.Thank you.

unfortunately, the default version of the Blog extension does not offer such a feature.Although the extension does include Latest Posts widget, it is designed to be placed in the content area.However, since the extension is open-source, you can probably add such dropdown via customization, and use the Latest Posts widget as a basis.Thank you.
